+<h1>GSSAPI Syslog Input Module</h1>
+<p><b>Module Name:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; imgssapi</b></p>
+<p><b>Author: </b>varmojfekoj</p>
+<p><b>Description</b>:</p>
+<p>Provides the ability to receive syslog messages from the
+network protected via Kerberos 5 encryption and authentication. This
+module also accept plain tcp syslog messages on the same port if configured to do so. If you need just plain tcp, use&nbsp; <a href="imtcp.html">imtcp</a> instead.</p>
+<p><b>Configuration Directives</b>:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>InputGSSServerRun &lt;port&gt;<br>
+Starts a GSSAPI server on selected port - note that this runs
+independently from the TCP server.</li>
+<li>InputGSSServerServiceName &lt;name&gt;<br>
+The service name to use for the GSS server.</li>
+<li>$InputGSSServerPermitPlainTCP on|<span style="font-weight: bold;">off</span><br>
+Permits the server to receive plain tcp syslog (without GSS) on the
+same port</li>
+<li>$InputGSSServerMaxSessions &lt;number&gt;<br>
+Sets the maximum number of sessions supported</li>
+</ul>
+<b>Caveats/Known Bugs:</b>
+<ul>
+<li>module always binds to all interfaces</li>
+<li>only a single listener can be bound</li>
+
+</ul>
+<p><b>Sample:</b></p>
+<p>This sets up a GSS server on port 1514 that also permits to
+receive plain tcp syslog messages (on the same port):<br>
